Monkey Island Tales 2 HD for iPad washes up on the App Store

Telltale's revenge

Monkey Island Tales 2 HD for iPad, the second in a five-parter from Telltale, has hit the New Zealand App Store, meaning it's set to tickle UK and US laughter tracts from around midnight tonight.

Once again, you point and click Guybrush Threepwood through the Monkey Island universe, encountering a whole host of rewarding puzzles and beguilingly named characters.

We felt that the first game in the Monkey Island Talesseries did the franchise justice without hitting the heights of the original LucasArts classics. As with most Telltale games on iPad, performance and control issues also got in the way. It's worth pointing out that Telltale's games run smoothly on iPad 2.

Monkey Island Tales 2 HD is available on the New Zealand App Store now, and it's set to land on UK and US App Store shores later £3.99 / $6.99 / €5.49
